ON Semiconductor Introduces AEC-Q100 Certified Image Sensor Optimized for OEM-equipped Automotive DVR Cameras

The new sensors provide outstanding performance for factory-assembled tachographs for use in emerging OEM-equipped driving recorders or in the pre-market car DVRs.

As more insurance companies launch financial incentive plans, consumer demand for security cameras is also increasing. Auto manufacturers recognize this and begin to use the driving recorder as a factory standard. The first model equipped with an OEM driving recorder has been launched.

The AR0237AT is the cost-optimized vehicle version of the same image sensor used by many manufacturers to produce drive recorders for the parts market. It offers 1080p / 60fps Full HD (HD) video capture and still image capture. As the application enters the pre-market segment, the automotive industry is increasingly working on programs that can operate over the entire automotive operating temperature range (-40°C to +105°C) and provide suitable performance at a reasonable price. demand. When the AR0237AT is equipped with a DVR processor supporting Clarity+TM, its micro light performance is further enhanced.

Ross Jatou, vice president and general manager of automotive solutions division of ON Semiconductor's image sensor division, said: “The AR0237AT has the same outstanding performance as non-vehicle-certified devices, providing excellent daytime color and nighttime near-infrared image capture. We don’t need to This can be achieved with the use of infrared cutoff filters, while the high dynamic range means that the sensor can continue to operate even under varying lighting conditions.The image processing is freed from the chip and the device is AEC-Q100 certified and we have successfully developed it. A solution that gives car manufacturers greater design flexibility and delivers superior performance at a competitive price.”

The AR0237AT is available in a 10 mm x 10 mm IBGA-80 package.
